Ok, what we actually have is this: Guile starts up with debugging off,
and it is turned on when entering the read-eval-print-loop. It is not
turned on when running a program via `-s', `-l', or `-c'. `.guile' is
only loaded when Guile is about to enter the repl, but debugging is
off when it is loaded.
Thus, a simple change would be to turn debugging on prior to loading
`.guile'. This will leave `-s', `-l' and `-c' alone, and only turn on
debugging when it would have been turned on anyway, only earlier.
Ok?
